I laughed hard when they cut to Josh Groban and was finally blown away when Harrison Ford makes his appearance. There’s nothing quite like going _way_ overboard on a retaliation prank. Affleck’s guest appearance on the Kimmel show afterwards was pretty good too, they kept the joke going for a while and riffed off of it for most of the show.

Yeah getting Harrison Ford (and really, Robin Williams) to appear in your prank video is pretty monumental. At least to me as a child of the Spielberg 80’s.

This video pretty much puts the Conan/Colbert/Steward Huckabee feud to shame 🙂

My favorite part is actually when Huey Lewis comes in; it’s exactly where he comes in in _We Are The World_. Pretty freakin’ smart.

I _thought_ that was Josh Groban. My God it’s like a modern version of Live Aid.

Well, that was epic. I watched it ont he ABC site (curse you, work firewall!), so I need some help figuring out who some of those other cameos were…Cameron Diaz and Don Cheadle, obviously…

Yes he was part of the gospel choir. He was the white one.

I hope a non-censored version gets out there sometime soon. I want to make sure I catch all the lyrics. It gets better on repeated viewings.

Who was that very first Punk chick who sang in the ensemble?

I’m sure I have heard her somewhere but I’m not sure.

I wanna say she is the lead for the Distillers, but I don’t think that is right.

It would spoil the joke. Silverman has said that she was actually singing “I’m friends with Matt Damon.”

She’s friends with him in the tub, in the car, up against the mini-bar? :dubious:
